Giving Over The Holidays....

I started a Meetup mommy group for L. I'm not as active as I'd like to be BUT I do my best to attend events and have fun.

Tomorrow I've opened our home to my mommy group and not only are we going to celebrate this holiday season but we are going to be collecting donations between us to give to Harvest Home a shelter for pregnant homeless women.

Here's a link to what they are looking for:

My point isn't to donate to them but my point is if you want to feel really good about yourself make some kind of donation this year. Last year our family had each kid select a charity and we all made a donation in their names. K wants to donate her hair to Locks of Love and has two more inches to grow and she's cutting her hair.

We all should remember how blessed we are. I mean really there all things we want but for needs we are all doing pretty good. If you can't donate this year maybe volunteer your time. I find when I'm having a rough time volunteering my time gets me out of myself and thinking about others.

Have a wonderful day!

The Holidays & Disneyland

Yes, it's been a while since I've updated my blog. I've been super busy and mostly sick but I actually have a few minutes to do a couple of posts.

The Holidays were great! We went to Disneyland for my birthday and had a blast. You would think on Christmas Eve it would be packed but it wasn't. It was so nice to be there (:

Kaila got to go on all the rides and we took turn sitting with her on rides. We even all got ears that were different...

Christmas was great too! We are blessed to have so many wonderful people in our lives. We started at my sisters where we spent time with our family. The kids all opened gifts. Then we were off to a good friends where we spent time with her and her mother. It was then off to my mothers for Christmas lunch and finally off to our close family friends who we had dinner with and spent the most time with. The kids had a wonderful time.

It was a great Holiday...Here's some pictures that stood out to me:
